Unique and One of a Kind by Boaz Snir

Unique and One of a Kind by Boaz Snir: This house doesn’t look like any of the other houses in the neighborhood.
The arches around the facades, preserving existing elements alongside adapting the interior and exterior to the new homeowners’ wishes, the natural materiality, the color palette, all make this family home (located in a pastoral neighborhood in one of the Sharon cities) an especially experiential and powerful one. The architect Boaz Snir, who is responsible for the redesign, shares the process. Photography by Ran Erde.

Hale Hapuna by Eerkes Architects

Hale Hapuna by Eerkes Architects is a 5,377-square-foot retreat focused on enhancing family interactions and connections to the land and seascape of Kauai’s South shore.
